THE RIGHT OF INTERROGATION

This colony, says the Straits Free Press of the gth instant, has for some years had occasional regaon to interest i'eelt in the proceedings of the much over-rated, not over-wise, and not over- respetable miscellany of individuals known as the House of Commons. The sccasions in polat are questions to Ministers, and the subject matter the one tople that has enabled ainety-nine hundredths of that asembly to learn that there exists a British Colony somed the Stratis Seillements. These questions have eḍaced from official lips replies of coriously elusive nature, is a story of long and fruitless Intellectual incubulan. Ministers and permanent officials, even inter-departmental Committees, have brooded, hen-tike, on the one poor egg of the Contribution difficulty. They have "con q'dered,” “ pondered," "enquired," "considered again,"" studled." " invesilgated," and yet again "considered," te Ministerial replies are to be believed, which, of course, they need not be, unless one chooses to exercise a child-like faith in such profession. The following, from the Lordon Globe, puts at their real value the replies which Secretaries and Under-Secretaries of State g've to members who "want to know ".-
